Doing Our Part To Change History For The Better In 1948, The World Medical Association created the Geneva Declaration as a proclamation of human rights. It was a direct response to the atrocities that had been committed by the Nazis. They were coming out of a period where it had been acceptable to kill, mistreat and perform experiments on those who were thought of as inferior.

Therefore, the Geneva Declaration was a means for declaring respect for human life. The oath included this clause, “I will have the utmost respect for human life, from the time of conception.”

However, in 1984, it was altered to no longer acknowledge conception. Instead, they replaced it with the words, “from its beginning.” That too did not survive. In 2005, it was deleted altogether, leaving no reference to the earliest stages of life. It’s shameful how this literally documents our society’s degradation of life.

That leads us to the present. What will future generations see in the history we leave behind? The tragic reality is that we have a culture of death where 60 million innocent babies have been denied the right to live in the U.S. Abortion mills thrive across the country where the unborn aren’t only killed, but abortionists profit from their "profession."

Yet, we have voices that are speaking out affirming the value of life. Technology, via ultrasounds, is showing the world the truth and beauty of development in the womb. Women help centers are located in communities across the country, reaching out to abortion-vulnerable women and saving babies’ lives. Pro-life legislation is being introduced on both federal and state levels. Much progress is being made; but make no mistake, it’s a bitter ongoing battle. For victory, we must each do our part so that we may stand at the turning point in history, where this generation will restore a culture of life. By Pro-Life Articles Author www.pro-lifearticles.org

During Lent, we are asked to focus more intently on "almsgiving," which means donating money or goods to the poor and performing other acts of charity.

As one of the three pillars of Lenten practice, almsgiving is "a witness to fraternal charity" and "a work of justice pleasing to God." (Catechism of the Catholic Church, no. 2462).

ENCOUNTER OPPORTUNITY We encounter Fernando in El Salvador where, despite a lack of economic opportunity, youth are pursuing their dreams of building businesses to better the lives of their families. How have you worked to better the lives of others this Lent? Visit crsricebowl.org for more.

Please return your rice bowl donations

by April 23, 2017.

Divine Mercy Sunday - 2nd Sunday of Easter A check for the total amount collected from the bowl should be made out to Saint Mary, in the memo line written ‘Rice Bowl’

909 Days That Changed the World

by Robert Dunne

Book Club Meeting: Wednesday, March 29, 4:30-6:00 Room #17pm. Books are available at the parish office.

“The whole idea of the book is to make Jesus more personal, more real and to get to know him as the warm, loving and forgiving man he was (and is).” 909 Days provides “a chronological timeline of Jesus’ public life which will give the reader both a framework of Jesus’ ministry as well as help give a better understanding of Jesus the man.” Bob Dunne

With Sr. Fran, we read an inspirational book (selected by the group) and discuss it.

Quo vadis…

My Dear Parishioners: Today we celebrate the Third Sunday of Lent. Coming to know Jesus as the savior of the world requires a constant deepening of faith, a faith that comes from the “gift of God.” Our lives constantly play out the struggle to deepen our faith and get to know Jesus better; the journey of all disciples is to come to deeper belief. One way to deepen our faith and come to know Jesus better is by spending more time with him as a friend. Lent is an opportune time to become more attentive to Jesus’ presence—especially in prayer—and encounter him as One who loves us. Another way is to enumerate the blessings God has already given us and remember that these truly are gifts from God. Yet another way to deepen our faith and come to know Jesus better is by coming to a deeper self-understanding of ourselves as body of Christ and make concrete efforts to act like Christ’s body. Something so simple as saying thank you or smiling at another who looks sad or depressed are simple acts, but they remind us of who we are: Christ for others.

Our Parish Lenten Penance & Reconciliation Service is scheduled for Sunday, 2 April at 3:00pm in our parish church. I am pleased to inform you that we have sixteen (16) priest confessors scheduled for your convenience.

Please come with your family, children, neighbors & friends to receive the grace of this awesome sacrament of God’s Mercy. We are in the process of scheduling ministers for Holy Week, the Triduum & Easter Sunday.

Please be open to serving our parish on these most holy days when the Sacred Liturgy calls us to reflect the great sacrifice of Christ for us.

We are in the preparation stages for the July 2017 – June 2018 Master Calendar. Parish

Leaders will soon receive their copy to request dates/facilities for the upcoming year.

Preparations for the 2017-2018 Financial Budget are beginning. Input for Capital Projects from the staff and other Pastoral Committees are being considered by the staff.

It is essential that these Pastoral Leadership Groups assist in the process of forming the budget and prioritizing the capital projects each year. It is imperative that we move toward “Mission directed budgeting” and move away from “Budgeting the mission”.

The Parish Trustees and Parish Finance Council along with the Pastor make the final determination for staff salary proposals with the Diocese of Trenton setting the standards for Clergy and Religious and compensation packages in the parish. Please continue to pray for and support all of those parishioners who generously share their time and talent to insure good stewardship of our parish resources and a sense of shared ownership that is critical as we continue to move forward.

Progress continues to be made in our steady progression toward attaining our goal for the Faith to Move Mountains Capital Endowment Campaign. As we make progress toward our parish goal, it remains important that we continue to expand the number of participants in this important initiative. We need broad support in order to achieve our goal. May God bless you for your tremendous spirit of sharing.

Thank you for your cooperation as we cleaned up our parish campus following the March Snow Storm.

Have a great week. Let us remember one another in prayer. Happy Sunday. Peace.

Father Jeff
